They didn't mention it was a panel interview beforehand, and the people I met were really fake, it felt like a weird experience. I'm glad I didn't get the job given the low pay and their zombie-like attitudes.

The interview was over the phone, and we talked about my background and if it fit what they needed. They asked if I could teach a certain upper-level literature class, since I'd be stepping in for a professor on sabbatical who had a similar, but not identical, specialty to mine. I was then asked about electives I could offer. It was a quick and practical interview, and we talked about salary and benefits right away, so no waiting for that info.

I had a phone interview first, then a panel interview. The phone interview was to check my background and see if I might be a good fit. The panel interview felt pretty intense and took a long time. Even though the people on the panel were nice, they asked a lot of hard questions one after another. Most of the questions were about what I'd do in certain situations.

It was mostly behavioral questions, like 'what would you do in x scenario' or 'describe a time when y happened to you' or 'you felt z way'. They know you might not have a lot of experience, but they want to see how mature and responsible you are.
